I've also stepped to the darkness...

This pretty sums up my view about this subject.
I'm 60, still riding Choppers, messing with cars, gals (my wife ) and booze. Life will slow you down a bit but more active you are, happier and healthier you'll be. Don't ever stop. Train karate, go to gym, go to see gigs and dance like nobodys watching you, and most of all don't give a fuck.
That's actually almost the best part being in the last quarter of your life. Not giving a fuck. If you have done so in earlier life, after fifty you usually start not to.
I think the best part of getting old is to see that your kids get along in life and to see grandkids grow up. Small things make me happy.

Had a fuckin great weekend

Last sunday us and few friends were kicking up the mood at a huge company party (1300 guests) with some wild rockabilly dancing. ( 888's got me sweating everywhere)

@injunjack sweet, we're going to be installing that setup on my buddy's shovel soon. i like the stance and proportions of that bike man

when adjusting the rear shock position, don't go too low, frame will scrape the pavement too easily. My forks are only 2" over of stock Sporty forks I think. Be prepared to cut the old swingarm in bits and pieces if it hasn't been taken off in decades, pain in the ass.
Also the thick 19 incher Shinko E270 does the trick. BTW this siu -80 FXS, Lowrider, so there is a bit more rake in the frame than in others, I've been told.
forgot to mention, Pike Bros Tee, IH 555-18s old version and Wesco Lou's.

about straight from the brown bag..
W35, hemmed to 31,75, double cuffed, for sidewalk use...

@Jett129 Not many of you boys around.. Never understood it myself.

wannabee hipsters rev at lights. Real bikers don't.

Jeans should be made in different lenghts, at least tapered models. It's not the same to have tapered jeans made in say 32in lenght as it's to hem tapered jeans from 36 to 32. I think I might have said this also yearsago...

@travisxray said in IH-888-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo:

I’d much rather be comfortable from day one. I’ve found that jeans don’t stretch nowhere near as much if you size them properly from the beginning. And I always wear a belt so my waist typically doesn’t stretch much.

This is something I have preached over the years....

@injunjack that really sucks.. hope you’ll be ok

I'll be OK, I'm just doing what grown ups do, having a drink and remembering those who passed away. Cheers

my latest. If somebody is from Sandy Eggo, they should recognise this.

Ditching the Pull Loops is a huge mistake. I hope they'll be back, or I must re-consider getting another pair.

@Nik said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:

This is really interesting. It sort of implies that a taper as a design is always going to offer a completely different overall shape to legs of different lengths. My 888’s are closer to a straight leg than someone taller.

Exactly this.
